Creating 2007 word forms & saving as 97-03 compatible

[edtechrocks]

When I create forms in Word 2007 they work. However, when I save them as
97-03 compatible the dynamic controls are converted as static, and when I
re-open my form has lost its "form capabilities".

Can anyone help?

If you're using Word 2007 content controls rather than legacy version form controls that's the way they're designed (i.e. content
controls are converted to static text).

If you're reopening the file in Word 2007 see if Office Button=>Convert restores the controls.
